{{About|the Crystal Shard item|the game|[[Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards]]|the area in [[The Great Cave Offensive]]|[[Crystal (area)]]}}
A '''Crystal Shard''' is one of the 74 scattered, hallowed pieces of a powerful Crystal, originally located on [[Ripple Star]] in ''[[Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards]]'', that fragmented some time after [[Ribbon]]'s attempt to safeguard the Crystal from [[Dark Matter (cloud)|Dark Matter]] at the beginning of the game. These indigo shards carry an unknown power, originally used to harmonize the forces surrounding Ripple Star; in their current, isolated forms, evil is more than able to penetrate not only Ripple Star, but the entire realm in search of these sacred crystal fragments. As the game's name implies, the plot of ''Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards'' is to collect and reclaim the broken pieces of the Crystal in order to restore peace to Ripple Star - and, by extension, the entire planetary system.

==Collecting the Shards==
[[File:K64 Group.png|200px|thumb|left|The group convenes over the partially rebuilt crystal in the [[Neo Star]] realm]]
In each regular stage, of which there are three or four per planet, three Crystal Shards are hidden. These fragments are often strategically placed so that Kirby must overexert himself physically (i.e. by floating and extended breath-holding) or in terms of busting down walls, blocks, etc. with different copy ability combinations in order to reach these treasures. While the final boss of a certain planet reveals one Crystal Shard upon defeat, many of the mini-bosses in ''Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards'' yield a Crystal Shard in the same manner. In the case that Kirby has already obtained a certain Crystal Shard within a stage, a large blue [[Point Star|star]] will take its place, rewarding Kirby with the equivalent of 10 Stars, placing him well on his way to achieving a [[1-Up]], if it is collected.

The number of Crystal Shards Kirby possesses by the time he reaches the boss of the Ripple Star, [[Miracle Matter]], determines whether or not he will be able to face the final boss, [[0²]], and rid the entire realm of Dark Matter. To face 0², all 74 shards (including the one [[Ribbon]] managed to keep and the one [[Kirby]] found after she landed on his head) must be found across the realm, and rightly so, as the shards themselves are the [[Ribbon's Crystal|sole weapon]] used to send 0² and Dark Matter back to the depths of space.

==Guide==
The following is a full guide on how to reach each Crystal Shard. Crystal Shards earned from stage bosses are required. The first two of the 74 shards are found at the start and are therefore not listed.
